Rennie Pratt arrested in Oakland attorney Michael Porcella shooting death - Inside Bay Area

From Inside Bay Area: “An Oakland attorney was shot to death Friday night and his girlfriend arrested in the killing at a Dimond district home, police said.
Michael Porcella, 36, was found shot about 11:29 p.m. Friday on the porch of his home in the 3700 of Laguna Avenue. Porcella, who worked as an attorney for the criminal defense firm of Robert Beles, was pronounced dead at the scene. His girlfriend of about six months, Rennie Pratt, 28, was arrested at the house, police said.
The gun that police believed was used in the shooting was found inside the house.
Pratt, who works as a barber at the Rossmoor retirement community in Walnut Creek, declined to talk to investigators, Sgt. Gus Galindo said Saturday.
Galindo said it appears the couple was having an argument. He said the two had previous altercations when police had been called.
The couple had been living together at the Laguna Avenue house, but Pratt said she had moved out the day before the shooting but could not remember her new address, Galindo said. Pratt was arrested on suspicion of murder. The case will be reviewed by the Alameda County district attorney for charging.”
